Indian Railways makes travel arrangements keeping every class in mind. Even in trains, coaches are made for different classes and people can travel in the train according to their budget. The lowest fare is in general coach followed by second seating, sleeper, third AC, second AC and first AC. The difference between sleeper and AC coach is clearly visible, but there is not much difference between third AC and second AC. Both the coaches are similar in appearance, yet how is there so much difference in the tickets of both the coaches. So let us know the answer to this question…
What happens in third AC?
There is only one difference between third AC and sleeper coach and that is AC. The structure of third AC and sleeper class coaches is the same and the seats in both the coaches are equal, but AC is installed in the AC coach. Both have different windows. At the same time, nowadays some trains also have AC economy coach, which has more seats than third AC coach and in that it is less comfortable than third AC. One berth of Third AC has seats in the arrangement of 3-3-2. In this, there are 3 seats facing each other in one berth.
Then what is different in second AC?
The most important difference between Third AC and Second AC is that the structure of its coach is different from that of Third AC coach. The number of seats in a compartment is also less, due to which it is less crowded and there is more space in the seats. Second AC berths have 2-2 berths instead of 3-3. With this, there is no problem with the middle berth and there is only a lower seat or upper seat. Apart from this, the quality of the seats is also different from third AC and the seats are wide and thick. In such a situation, you can sleep well on these seats.
Due to less crowd, there is not much dirt or rush in the toilet and due to more space, you feel comfortable. Due to these facilities, there is a difference in the fare of both the coaches. Talking about the first AC, its design is completely different and it is a cabin system. First AC does not have side seats and has two-four seater cabins.
